How does this rum taste?
Rum Merchants Double Barrel, crafted by Charles Merser & Co. in the UK, is an intriguing blend distilled from molasses using pot and column stills. At 43.1% ABV, it unfolds tropical fruit and vanilla aromas complemented by a hint of banana and caramel. The taste is a delicate balance of spicy vanilla and oak, with subtle young wood and caramel notes. Users appreciate its resemblance to Jamaican rum with a strong aroma, spicy dryness, and a woody, nutty finish. This rum offers a full-bodied experience with a gentle whiskey hint, making it a notable choice for enthusiasts seeking complexity without added sugars or colorants.

Surprisingly fruity on the nose, like a large fruit cocktail. Vanilla and barrel notes on the palate. First toffee and pastry on the finish, then woody again.
Strong aroma like a Jamaican rum, heavy on the dunder, but quite refined with it. Spicy and dry in the mouth with a caramel undertone. Finish is woody and nutty.
A good rum, pleasant in the mouth, lightly woody and vanilla-flavoured, with no added sugar or colouring.
Very nice, full nose, full taste,soft hint of whiskey at the end
